  1. Right atrium

    The right atrium is one of four chambers in the hearts of mammals and archosaurs. It receives deoxygenated blood from the superior and inferior vena cava and the coronary sinus, and pumps it into the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve. Attached to the right atrium is the right auricular appendix. Atria facilitate circulation primarily by allowing uninterrupted venous flow to the heart, preventing the inertia of interrupted venous flow that would otherwise occur at each ventricular systole. The right atrium is composed of a smooth intercaval part and a muscular part separated by an internal ridge called the crista terminalis and an external groove. The muscular part is derived from the primitive atrium while the smooth part is formed from the embryological sinus venosus.
